In Zimbabwe's political landscape, General Constantino Chiwenga's reported warning about the Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 (CAB3) illustrates how military leaders may strategically position themselves during constitutional crises, using public warnings to maintain influence while avoiding direct confrontation that could destabilize the political establishment; this reflects broader patterns in Zimbabwe's history where leadership transitions have historically been non-democratic and brutal, with power changes occurring through military interventions rather than peaceful electoral processes.

General Chiwenga gives last warning, says people will be punished 3 fold, Watch speech
Added:Right, 20 June 2026.
Right guys, uh today I have an update for you regarding the last warning that has been given by General Chuena. And uh I think you already know that the constitutional amendment bill number three of 2026 has already been passed in parliament voted for now going to the committee stage and then after that goes to presidential ascent in which the president will sign it into law.
Right. So um we have seen that there's been quite a fighting between the two men uh General Chena and Emerson Mangagwa. But the between the two of them in fact they are using different strategies. Uh let's start by the strategy which is applying.
He is applying a strategy in which he he keeps his enemies close. That's why you see that he doesn't want to remove General because he knows that if he does that it might be a mistake because remember that one it will cause maybe a a bit of chaos from the military establishment and also it also doesn't go down well because he was the one who was instrumented in him becoming the president of Zimbabwe in 2017.
And um also it might cause a lot of other troubles because they know that General Chuena is the support of the people at large. Because you see the masses support General Chen, but because the small elite group of people uh who are using cash to now um promote this constitutional amendment bill number three of 2026 now become victorious because of that.
So right so let's see what is currently happening. So you see General Chuena there in full military gear and this this is one of the instances in which angered Emerson because he didn't expect to see General Tuena in full military gear as vice president. H this actually was one of the moments that Emagua was scared to the core. Right now let's look at what currently is happening here. Right. Let's hear what General Chuena said here. Right. So we go to this tweet here. Right. General Tuinga says what >> say to you all as we are all gathered here is that fear not for the Lord Almighty is with you.
Zimbabwe Zimbabwe will not die.
Zimbabwe will not collapse. Those who have intended to harm this godgiven country shall be punished three-fold.
So we are breathing and we will continue to breathe.
Right. I think you hear there General saying that there are some people who are trying to bring this country to some kind of trouble and I don't think there's anyone who doesn't know how to interpret this what General Chuena is referring to here. General Schwena is referring to the fact that the constitutional amendment bill number three of 2026 has been passed and is taking the country in the wrong direction. And he says that be patient. Be patient and we will punish these people severely.
We will punish them severely. This is what he says. So um now what we don't know is what course of action is he going to take or what will make this all what he's saying happen and uh all what we do here is to wait and see what General Tuena will do. So uh let's check here what other people say. So if you if you look here uh there is a tweet from uh Ed Hash my vote this guy here says that now that cap 3 is done and dusted ZanPF must not must now get rid of comrade CDG Jena and his rebellious allies or at least give him an ambassadorial role in Somalia away from government business. Clearly the man has been supporting his superior commerang and the government. You say, you see this tweet here, it's talking about this the most likely event that we can see in the next coming days that maybe the removal of General Chena is imminent because we have seen him, you know, um suggesting otherwise.
He wasn't supporting the constitution amendment bill. He's not uh doing anything of that. So, let's see the comments because let's see the comments here for for this tweet here and see what people say about removing General Twang, right?
You see the first one says, "Are you serious?"
Then says, "Very serious." That's what it says there. Uh, "You think so? Let's wait a bit. I had a dream to the contrary."
Right? You see there it says if wishes were hores beggars would write kana something like that you see 2028 won't be zpf presidential candidate stand guided you see so it means someone here is suggesting that general shuena won't be the presidential candidate for 2028 because it's already done and dusted because remember this was very strategic It was done in such a way that uh it should be um completed before 2027 because 2027 is a year in which uh the Congress you know comes together to elect a new president for Zanopf but now all has been up in smoke because of cap 3, right? Uh you can see lots of comments there. uh which bill is which bill is done though for all this they are saying h it's not yet done because it's still in parliament remember it still has to go to the committee stage and then after that goes to the president for presidential ascent or sometimes he he can take it back you know something like that right politics very ZanPF leadership change is brutal. Yeah, that is a very good point because see remember that ZanPF's change of power has never been smooth. There's no remember this is traditional.
There's no smooth transition in Zanpf.
That is effect because if you look since remember that was removed by the declaration in which military personnel actually did a coup and let Mugabi in.
And then after Mugabi was actually removed with a coup as well and Mangaga came in and you can see that the removal of Mangaga is going to be brutal as well. It's not going to be smooth because this is traditional. So people shouldn't expect elections to to to change the leadership in Zimbabwe. This is this is historical and it's well known that um it's not going to happen like that.
That's why you see people saying General or the military or something like that because it's traditional. You know, Zimbabwe is not listed as a country that removes the presidents with CS, but it is in fact because it it it pretends to be a a democratic country, but which in fact it isn't. From from history, you can tell that, you know, it isn't, right, guys? You can see the warning there given by General Chena. And if you think that there is something that General Chunga is going to do, please write it in the comment section uh so that we can discuss
